Bachelorettes

For fans of Emily Henry and Dolly Alderton, from bestselling author Rosa Rankin-Gee, Bachelorettes is a sharp, heart-warming, and laugh-out-loud tale of friendship, wedding seasons, and finding love where you least expect it. Narrated by Golden Globe winner Erin Doherty (Adolescence) and Georgina Sadler (The A List).

Alex has sworn off straight girls for good. After too many heartbreaks, she's determined to protect herself - even if that means shutting out love completely. But when she reluctantly attends her best friend's bachelorette weekend, Alex meets Lila - smart, gorgeous, and, predictably … straight. Despite her best efforts, Alex can't deny the spark between them.

As the weekend unfolds, replete with rivalries, a naked chef and ungodly amounts of prosecco, Alex and Lila are inescapably drawn to each other. But Lila lives in New York, and has a boyfriend to get back to– surely Alex is headed for heartbreak once again. Can she let down her walls and take a chance on love? Or will her fears keep her from finding true happiness? And for Lila, are her feelings for Alex a temporary madness, or undeniable fate? And which is the crazier decision: to ignore this overwhelming instinct, or to embrace it?

Told with wit and warmth–and based on the author’s own story of how she met her wife – Bachelorettes is a feel-good romantic comedy about taking risks, being true to yourself, and discovering that love often arrives when you least expect it.
